Agree with Kevin, Cyanide.. Petco gets a lot of there fish from the Philippines.. Heard they use cyanide a lot there... Bought two fish from Petco.. Never again! Learned the hard way...
Petco gets all their fish from Apet or Quality Marine. You can do far worse than those two places. The problem with Petco is not their suppliers, it's their tank.

Don't think they get Cyanide from Petco... My minimal experience, they get the fish in and sell them immediately... No much time for the poor fish to die from Cyanide..
Bottom line, IMO stay away from them.

Sorry to hear about your troubles. Our LFS in the area suck. I mean they suck. Keeping fish in copper dosed water is so unethical. I will not buy anything until they change their practice.

Idk i rather they be treated i use copper power for my qt the whole hobby is unethical we take fish from the ocean and stick them in glass cages for r amusement so as long as your in this hobby and own a fish your just as unethical as the rest of us im sure all of us accidentally killed many of fish hell i wiped out whole system 3 times before i got it right when i first started. Copper was the only thing that saved the fish that didnt die . To each there own i know there's new meds out now and im not sure how to use them or where to buy them so i will stick with what works for me . As for lfs I haven't lost faith in all of them yet im down to these last two that i got these guys from im gonna chock this up to lesson learned and shit luck i may get another naso down the road but its gonna take while for wife to forget how much i spent on the five that died in the last two months

Possibly they did i got em from them before . This time the wrasse wasnt from them only the tang and the tang didnt have flukes . Its a nasty bug to get rid of
